Re: 1974 350 problem

The mounting is divided into 2 parts. One part bolts to the block, these are called clamshells. The other half bolts to the car, these are called pads. It would be best to get both clamshells and pads that are for any '82-'92 V8 Camaro, but some other versions work just fine. I'm not clear exactly what, since I always hunted down the correct stuff, or went with Moroso solid mounts.
BTW, you can't use the exhaust manifold in the pic.

Re: 1974 350 problem

any local salvage yard should have some. And forget attaching the headers until after the engine is mounted in the car.
